THE JOEY BRA


THE JOEY BRA


A new hype has been released! Women no longer have to worry about where to put their stuff when going to parties. The Joey Bra brings the comfort all women were desperately searching for. It is not only a beautiful designed bra, it also has a pocket on each side of the bra, just beneath the armpits, where women can keep their cell phone, camera, keys, … Now they are no longer obligated of always having their purse with them, they can easily use the Joey Bra and are thereby free to dance as much as they like. It’s also said that after a while you are so used to it, you no longer even notice having something underneath your arm. The Bra also comes in very handy when going for a run. Mp3-players, for example, fit into the pocket perfectly, as you can see on the picture below.

The Bra was invented by two students of the university of Washington. They held a survey where they asked women about their party habits. Their conclusion was that approximately 95 percent of the respondents had a problem with storing their stuff when going to a party and 88 percent of those women were very interested in having a subtle pocket on the side of their bra for keeping their personal items.

Thereby, they invented the first bra for women who like to party without carrying a heavy handbag with them. And now you’re probably wondering what this handy thing may cost. Well as I may say it, the designers were very generous when putting up a price tag, as you can already buy one for 30 dollars.

Thousands of pounds of pot found floating off Calif. Coast


Thousands of pounds of pot found floating off Calif. Coast

According to reports Harbol patrol officers  found nearly 8000 pounds of marijuana floating off the coast of Orange County. The marijuana was packed in bales and was worth around $3.6 million. The event was spotted on Sunday May 20, 2012 and was reported by a boater, who saw them floating around 15 miles offshore,  to the maritime law enforcement .
All 160 bales were floating in the water off the coast of Orange County, near Dana Point and the weight totaled 7,263 pounds. Three harbor patrol boats and a coast guard cutter were needed to retrieve the floating marijuana from the water.
Border patrol agent supervisor Michael Jimenez said: "At other events, they've dumped the bales to get rid of weight if they're being chased," he said. "Generally in these cases we're aware they're being dumped. What's more unusual is that the bales were floating with no boat in sight."
No vessel or suspects have been identified .

               Twitter Agrees to ”Do Not Track Privacy” Option





Most websites often collect information about their visitors. Some of these sites are very respectable, like Facebook. This collected data is used for advertising.
Now twitter wants to make a difference. Thursday the company announced that it was joining Mozilla, the maker of the Firefox web browser, and giving their users the ability to opt-out of being tracked by twitter by enabling the “Do not track” feature on the Firefox web browser.  This function allows people to prevent cookies from collecting personal data — but it will only work if a site agrees to acknowledge it.
Carolyn Penner, a spokeswoman for Twitter, said: “As the Federal Trade Commission’s CTO, Ed Felten, mentioned this morning, Twitter now supports Do Not Track. We applaud the FTC’s leadership on Do Not Track, and are excited to provide the benefits of Do Not Track.”
Recently Facebook started allowing people to see what personal data was being collected, but the function to disable these tracking cookies is still unavailable.
Mozilla shared new statistics for the Do Not Track add-on and congratulated Twitter for its actions.
Mozilla said: “We’re excited that Twitter now supports Do Not Track and global user adoption rates continue to increase, which signifies a big step forward for Do Not Track and the Web”.

Lanvin L’homme sport: Review


Lanvin L’homme sport: Review

Lanvin L’homme sport is an interesting fragrance. When I see the word “sport” in a fragrance name I immediately relate it to the words: fresh, acquatic, boring. The first time I saw this bottle it was lying in a bargain bin for around 20 dollar for a 3.4 oz. Curious as I was I bought one and took it home.
The initial spray was not that interesting. I immediately got a burst of citrus. It smelled clean, fresh and pretty dull, a typical “sport” fragrance. Don’t get me wrong it smelled nice, but nothing more.
After wearing it for a good 2-3 hours I smelled my wrists again and there I was pleasantly surprised. The fresh dullness disappeared and a strange smell came to the front. First I wasn’t really sure what it was but I knew I had smelled it before. After looking up some notes I saw that the strange vibe of the fragrance was due to the oak moss. Although it being strange, it gives a nice twist to the whole fragrance and makes the dullness disappear immediately.
Longevity and projection are pretty average. I get around 6-7 hours longevity. When the fragrance is nearing the end of its life it stays pretty close to the skin but still detectable for people to notice around you.
All by all this fragrance is pretty decent and will make a nice casual day time scent. For people who are into fragrances and have smelled a lot this will be nothing ground breaking but nobody can disagree that this is some quality juice.

Guild wars 2: Bringing PvP to the next level



Article first published as Guild Wars 2: Bringing PvP to the Next Level on Technorati.

Guild wars 2: Bringing PvP to the next level

In almost every MMORPG there is a PvP (Player versus player) aspect. Some publishers put a lot of effort in this aspect of the game, some don’t.
Lately there is a lot to read about the latest Guild Wars game. Although people can play open beta weekends, the game is not yet released and an official release date is yet to be announced. One thing Guild Wars 2 has to offer is a great PvP experience. The whole PvP aspect of the game consists out of two flavors: Instanced PvP and World vs. World (WvW).
The first is basically known be all of us gamers who have already played an MMORPG. You join a team of players and compete against another team in different game modes. When you join a battle, your character will be boosted to the highest level in the game (level 80). This may seem strange but that’s how players will be balanced. Also the character’s gear will be replaced with standard PvP gear. This means that the player’s skills will make a huge difference in combat.
Until now there’s only one game mode available which is: conquest. In this game mode people have to capture different points on the map. When a team takes over a control point they gain points and the first team that hits the 500 points mark wins. Pretty simple…
Now on to the second part of the PvP aspect: World vs. World. To me this is the most interesting of the two because of its originality. In this game mode your server will be competing against two other servers in a campaign course of two weeks long. This huge battle will take place in an area called “The mists”. In this area there are three different forts which are the home bases of the three different servers. There are also a number of other places which people can capture to gain points like camps, bridges, etc. .
The main goal is to capture as many camps and forts as you can. Of course there is different siege weaponry that helps destroying these buildings. This whole experience is yet unseen in other games which I think is what this game will make extra popular.
Unlike instanced PvP where all characters have the standard PvP gear, in WvW you’ll be wearing your own gear but your level will be boosted to level 80. People will be able to gain experience and loot in WvW. This will make the whole PvP experience much more attractive to all players, even the hard core PvE fans.
If you haven’t tried out WvW last weekend, make sure to check  it out. You won’t regret it!

LOUBOUTIN

 The color of love 


Christian Louboutin’s high heels fascinate all woman since 1991, especially for their red-lacquered soles. It’s one of thé signatures Louboutin gives to his adorable shoes, together with his personalized autograph on the inside and the length of the heels. The story behind the all known red soles dates back to the nineties when he wanted his shoes to be more eye-catching. His inspiration was a red nail polish from a customer. He polished the soles into red and in a blink of an eye a hype was born. It is a visible touch that brands Louboutin. Women can brag about them having the shoes with the red sole. It’s a way of showing of, a statement. In 2007 Louboutin has asked to protect his trademark. The discussion about this is still running.

 High heels = pleasure or pain?

 Christian Louboutin finds that beauty has its price. His heels with a minimum length of 12 centimeter confirm that thought. “If they can’t handle it, they shouldn’t wear high heels”, he claims. One fan definitely agrees, Victoria Beckham. With painful hard skin and a hernia she keeps on wearing her favorite shoes. Although he was so convinced, when years passed he also designed shoes with a lower heel height.

 Handbags

It’s long obvious that Christians shoes are very popular with the crowd but like that wasn’t still enough, he also started designing handbags and of course he had to give them his own personal touch. Therefor each handbag is foreseen with a red interior. One by one they look absolutely gorgeous!
